We're Going Through Changeesss...
I know I’ve been soooo
AWOL… And if I could actually bring myself to admit to the shit I’ve eaten in the past week… You’d all be completely repulsed by me right now. I NEED to get a grip… This is seriously getting out of hand.
On a good note, my iPhone got fixed by the boy (he’s handy, I think I might have to keep him around). PS if your iPhone is...
Planks
Kill me. In a good way. The end.
P.S. You won’t be hearing much of me til after my best friends wedding this weekend! <3

Yooogggaaaa!!!
Day 4 of yoga. I can touch my toes completely now without struggle! It’s amazing what only 4 days will do.
Also, my neck and back tension is gone. Annnnd I unlocked ALL of my wii fit yoga poses!! Yeeeesss!!! Haha. I was so happy to unlock the cobra… And the dance pose… Yay!!! The dance one is WAY harder btw… When you’re trying to also focus on your centre of...
My Quirky Life: Mini Eggplant-Crust Pizzas →
This idea stemmed from a previous side dish I made using eggplants which you can find here. I decided to prep the eggplants the same way I did in that previous recipe, but this time do a twist on it afterwards. Now you all remember those little frozen pizzas that were pretty tasty yet so bad…
I definitely have to try this sometime! <3

Day 3 of Yoga
Okay, so maybe it’s a little “uncool” that I’m doing my yoga on the wii fit for right now. But I find it really helps me to maintain my centre of balance. Once I am more self-aware of my balance, I will definitely move off the wii board, and onto more intense yoga workouts (via. dvd, or maybe an actual class). As for right now, I’m just getting back into the swing of...
Oh Yoga, I've Missed You
I’ve been really stiff and sore lately, and so it hit me… I haven’t done any yoga in MONTHS. I used to do it at least 1-2 times a week. And that alone, kept me feeling supple and not stiff. I’ve been back at it for 2 days, and already I can feel the improvement. It also calms me, and helps remove stress from my body. I looove it. Why have I neglected my body for so long?!...
Credit to @taylormosher... Hehe cute.
I am passing this on to you because it definitely works and we could all use a little more calmness in our lives.
By following simple advice I heard on the Dr. Phil show, you too can find inner peace. Dr. Phil proclaimed, “The way to achieve inner peace is to finish all the things you have started and never finished.”
So, I looked around my house to see all the things I started and...

Summer O' Craziness
So, I’m not going to ramble off a list of excuses on why I haven’t exactly made HUGE progress this summer. I’m definitely NO WHERE near where I had intended on being almost 10 weeks ago. I kind of let life take ahold of me, and I really have to learn how to COMPLIMENT my life with being healthy, instead of having the two constantly mashing heads.
So as of this moment, I am not...

The best reading is re-reading.
Outer order contributes to inner calm.
The opposite of a great truth is also true.
You manage what you measure.
By doing a little bit each day, you can get a lot accomplished.
People don’t notice your mistakes and flaws as much as you think.

This is letting go...
I deleted Mr. Blue Eyes from Facebook.
This is really pathetic, but I was laying in bed thinking about how I miss him… and how maybe I’d call and tell him that… maybe I’d tell him that I miss his kisses, and his smile… and maybe I’d tell him that I miss laughing with him, and him making fun of me when I pout. Maybe I’d tell him I WOULD be brave and ride...
Hey My Lovelies
Just an update, I didn’t die! Sorry about the lack of posts… I’ve just been incredibly busy.
Just got off my first night shift, and I loooove it!! Now I’m going to try and sleep.
If I’m ever AWOL… You can usually catch mini-updates on me on my twitter… So add me! :)

Fitspo!! Mandy Moore
Okay so not only is she totally cute, have you ever seen anything about this girl yo-yo dieting in the tabloids? Uh no. She’s amazing. Here are just a few things she’s said that make her so…
“[As a star] you have professionals who make you look a certain way … I can’t roll out of bed and look that way,” says Moore. “I’m very comfortable with...

Couch 2 5k - W1:D1
Okay, so even though it definitely wasn’t nearly as intense as this pic, I got out running again for the first time in nearly a month. I’m not even kidding you, as I was sitting on the couch watching my little sis and her friend play wii, I got this overwhelming urge to move. And who am I to argue with that? So, up I got, and out the door I went. I decided to start the Couch...
Heeey...
I realize I have some questions in my ask box to answer… I will get around to them… but for right now, I have to go finish painting my sisters room. She’s comes here tomorrow! Yay. I’ll probably be pretty busy, and not around much til Tuesdayish.
Love you all! Summer <3
Misconceptions About the Master Cleanse
This is taken from Peter Glickman’s therawfoodsite.com. There’s a lot of good information on his site. And he addresses a lot of the crap I’ve been reading going around tumblr… about fasting/cleansing being “bad”.
Misconception #1: “Health experts claim that this diet sends each of its followers in a hospital if they try it more than 10 days.” (originally...

Day 7 :)
Weeeeee. I feel fantabulous today! I don’t feel detoxy at all today. I feel super awake, and my head feels clear.
Changes I’ve noticed so far are…
Dandruff is GONE. Okay so this is gross, whatever, but about 3 weeks to a month ago, I started to get dandruff… and it was gross. I’ve never gotten it before… so believe me… I LOST it. Lol, my Mom tried to no...
Progress Blog

Isn’t he just the cutest?! Omg so excited!! To make this fitness related… horseback riding burns 428 calories per hour… and I’ll be doing LOTS of it!! <3
I AM GETTING MY PONY BACK!!!
This is my first horse Ecko… my baby. The love of my horse life. I sold him to get a bigger horse to move up in showing… and I always regretted it. Now he’s back up for sale… and guess who is buying him!! YUP, this girl!! <3
Le Sigh.
Up at 4am AGAIN, oh the joys have having to do the salt water flush before work.
On a related note, I read something that made my heart happy. I struggle a lot with all the “haters” because you can’t rationalize with them, and they have all either a) never tried the Master Cleanse, or b) tried, lasted 2-3 days, and quit because it was hard/uncomfortable. You cannot know how...
